Back story:
I remember. We went to sleep early that night, Calvin and I. It was a long day. I combed through my ginger hair with my fingers as I sat down on the bed. “I’m so exhausted…” my voice trailed off into a yawn as I looked to Calvin sleepily. He was already dozing off. I polished my ring with my loose tank top before crawling under the silky covers, carefully, as not to wake him. “I love you.” I whispered as I kissed the back of his neck. He was asleep; there was no response.
I wake up the next morning in a sea of smoke. Stammering to my feet, I cough heavily and heave, trying to get just one breath of air into my lungs.
Cracking my eyes open painfully, I squint, but it’s useless; I can’t see anything. My skin burns from the apparent fires that consumed our home. Bringing my hands to my face, I scream; my dirty fingers dig into blistering boils, breaking them and causing them to bleed mercilessly. My aqua eyes now red and tearing, I squeeze them shut and feel around; grasping for something, anything; but there was nothing to hold. I collapse onto my knees, sobbing in the remaining cinder that was our safe place. “Calvin?!” my throat feels as if it’s bursting into slivers. “CALVIN?!” No response…
